A system of low pressure could develop near Florida or off the southeastern coast of the U.S. over the Fourth of July weekend, or early next week.

Meteorologist Ken South said on X, Tuesday: "Chances are increasing that a tropical system will develop in the NE Gulf near Florida in the next few days. There is now a 40-percent, medium chance of development. The next name on the Atlantic list this year is 'Chantal.'"
